Tyra and Chance Bogert could not consider their luck after witnessing the massive creature “pop” and “crack” its personal antlers off – proper in entrance of their eyes.
Watch the video above.
“Mostly we’ve gotten a lot of wildlife – a lot of moose – in this area,” Tyra informed the US’ 6WRBC.
“I clicked on it (the CCTV footage) and thought ‘oh I wonder what he’s going to do’.
“Next factor he begins shaking after which his antlers fall off.. we checked out one another like ‘holy crap’.”
Though a bit unsettling to watch, it’s completely normal for a male moose to shed their antlers after mating season, when they no longer have a need for them and are ready to grow a fresh pair.
The chances of spotting an occurrence like this is “extraordinarily uncommon” the Bogert’s say, with the video already having clocked over five million views on TikTok.
The couple say they plan to have the antlers mounted on their wall, however measuring at a whopping 50 inches vast every, they’re going to want greater than a nail and hook to maintain their new trophies in place.
